🚫 E-collars might seem "effective," but that’s only because they’re so unpleasant that dogs learn to avoid the behaviour to escape punishment. There’s no denying it, they’re just a powerful punishment tool. But why harm your dog for temporary results and risk long-term issues when you can achieve lasting change without causing pain? 🐾💛
At Trusty Tails, we believe in ethical, fear-free training methods that prioritise your dog's welfare. I’ll never compromise on their well-being. 🌟Choosing the right trainer matters because every trainer has their approach.
👋Hi, I’m Alice from Trusty Tails! 🐶 I work with all kinds of dogs, from sensitive souls to reactive pups. If you think I might be the right fit for you, don’t hesitate to:

On Day 5 of Woofmas Lauren from @present_company_inc teaches us another fantastic training game! So Bear and I were keen to demonstrate some of the uses of Nose Touch!

I love how the nose touch game brings
🎄 fun to the training
🎄 better strategies to move our dogs in space
🎄 more ways for us to bond with our dogs
🎄 another brilliant way to give our dog choice and agency!
LOVE THE GAME!!
✨ I'm OBSESSED with chin rests and targeting behaviours, they're just so versatile! Whether it’s for obedience training, assistance dog tasks, or my personal fave: low-stress handling and cooperative care 🐾💆♀️.
Here’s a quick look at how I’m using foot targets and a chin rest to position Ziggy for his prescribed rehab massages from @vetrehabservices. 💪🐶Working with this boy is such a joy! 💕
💆♀️🐶 Massaging has been a breeze since I started incorporating chin rest exercises into our routine.
Check out my previous reels for tutorials on tricks like platform training, chin rests, and more!

Here’s a commonly overlooked tip for improving on-leash behaviour! 🐕 Are you engaging your dog in fun, enriching activities? 🎾 Doing so can actually help your dog stay closer to you during walks, as they won’t feel the need to seek excitement or stimulation from other things you pass by. 🐾
I’ve helped many reactive dogs become calm and trusting of their owners, completely transforming their behaviour. 🐶✨ If you’re struggling with a reactive dog or want to improve your on-leash walks, check out our specialised behaviour training classes. (Link in bio) 📍 Located in Perth, WA.

🐕🦺 Reactive dogs often behave differently around various types of dogs, and it might feel impossible to imagine your dog socialising calmly without fear. But it is possible!
The first step is finding a suitable dog friend — one that triggers the least anxiety in your pup. 🐾 It doesn’t mean they’ll become best buddies right away, but forcing your dog to socialise with one they’re terrified of isn’t the right approach.
In my "Social Walks for Reactive Dogs" classes, I carefully pair your dog with the perfect companion. 🐶 When done properly, social walks provide a safe way for both you and your dog to gain confidence around other dogs, with support from experienced trainers and plenty of enrichment activities. 🌟
